President Klaus Iohannis said on Wednesday at the Cotroceni Presidential Palace that for the time being there is no discussion at the level of the national leadership about locking Romania down.
He underscored that the number of intensive care beds should be increased in hospitals that can receive COVID-19 patients.
"All that must be done at the same time, because locking the country down, in my opinion, is not a solution. What would we do: close the country for two weeks, then what? We have to start from scratch once again and then it is obvious that we have to found a fair balance that allows us to continue our lives under pandemic circumstances. We can't think we'll be back to normal in a month or two. We'll be back to normal if we care now, in a month or two months' time and if scientists manage to find a vaccine, hopefully soon enough," said Iohannis.
